      Whether you're looking to top up your tan while you explore ancient temples, or are eager to cool off in the sea after a day of cycling, we've gathered our best destinations for maximum sunshine.

       

      Iceland

      During June departures, visitors to the Land of the Midnight Sun will be treated to around 20 hours of daylight each day. On this 8-day Iceland adventure, you’ll make the most of these extended days by exploring the iconic city of Reykjavik, as well as ‘the capital of the North’, Akureyri. Surrounded by cascading waterfalls and volcanic landscapes, photographers will enjoy endless opportunities to snap the scenery, while those looking to unwind can opt for a soak in a GeoSea bath in the beautifully light evenings.
